- Issue
The files rpcnetp.exe and rpcnetp.dll may be incorrectly identified as indicating a 'Trojan' virus, by anti-virus software.Several computer manufacturers, including Toshiba, have received reports that virus protection software may report these files to be a Trojan virus. Warnings about these files may be safely ignored. The files are not part of a virus, they are part of Absolute Software's Lojack application.
- Resolution
Absolute Software is currently working with several anti-virus software vendors to update their virus definitions so that they ignore the two files noted above. Once you have installed the updated virus definitions, the files will no longer be identified as a virus.Toshiba recommends updating anti-virus definitions daily, as a standard practice.
